Did Jackie really love Shaunna or was her relationship with her based more on control/ownership, superiority?

right so outside of my inbox you're free to have whatever interpretation you want of this show and i'll just scroll and ignore it but you really came to My Inbox to bait me with that boring ass shit huh. for what reason. but anyways yeah let's talk about why that is blatantly untrue not only because it's contrary to the intention of literally every creator who spoke about it but also because of what we see on screen

so. you focused on jackie specifically. i somehow never see people (on here at least i don't ever leave this website it's scary out there) doubt shauna's love for jackie and that's been bothering me since like mid season 1 sooooo is it cause. let's face it. majority of tumblrinas were never a Popular Girl (no offense. i was not the popular girl either and very much more of a shauna - in terms of being in my bestie's shadow - in my own toxic best friendship)? like i have seen people vilifying jackie since i stepped my foot in this fandom over a year ago even when objectively she's one of the only characters who doesn't really do anything bad. even when the characters themselves confirm she wasn't a goddamn bitch like my god episode ONE of season one is them talking about wanting to freeze out a member and how jackie would be against it. but because people relate more to shauna and how she's in jackie's shadow there seems to be an urge to not give the same space to be messy and toxic (and still love!) to jackie that people give to shauna.

now am i saying that the way jackie loved shauna was Definitely Healthy or whatever? no. i think shauna was correct in a lot of what she said to jackie before jackie's death except that's it isn't it? shauna was never honest with jackie. the LOOK on jackie's face when shauna says some of those things? that girl didn't even have any idea that shauna doesn't like fucking soccer cause shauna never told her. and jackie is so visibly actually INSECURE. is it possible that feeling like the popular one next to shauna made her feel good? even if only on a subconscious level? duh. but what are you even trying to say here? that every scene where we see how much she cares for shauna (teasing her in ep one but then making sure shauna knows how much she means to her, bringing her valium for the flight because she Knows shauna and wanted to make this experience easier for her, giving her a good luck necklace to calm her nerves, sharing that food ration, immediately hugging shauna and wanting to support her when she first found out shauna was pregnant, fucking saving her from the plane at the expense of van etc) is all some act? cause that girl can't even fake being into sex with her boyfriend so we're still saying she puts a hell of a lot more effort into pretending to care for shauna. sure
